Illuminated Signage Materials
We use a variety of illuminated signage materials to cater to the diverse needs of our clients. We ensure that each sign not only captures attention with its brightness and clarity but also aligns with specific aesthetic preferences and functional requirements.
Some of the materials we use include:
Acrylic Signs
Acrylic is a type of durable plastic sheeting. It’s available in dozens of colours and thicknesses that achieve unique light scattering effects. The versatility of acrylic allows it to be applied in indoor and outdoor settings, where it’s used for lightboxes, 3D signage and specially crafted lettering.
Aluminium Signs
Aluminium is incredibly durable and resistant to deterioration. It can be powder coated to achieve a high-gloss finish that exudes quality and sophistication. Available in various thickness, it’s perfectly suited for both indoor and outdoor signs that range from small to medium dimensions.
Composite Panels (ACP)
Aluminium Composite Panels (ACP) are made from a sandwich of aluminium sheets and a plastic core. A novel material in the realm of sign making, ACP is lightweight and resistant to warping, decay and corrosion. It’s excellent for precision designs, illuminated signs and outdoor use.
Flex Face
This PVC-based fabric is ideal for illuminated signage enclosures that demand a seamless finish. It stands out for its excellent resistance to wind and weather. Flex face fabrics are the perfect choice for large-format illuminated signage that would be too large for acrylic sheets.
Our Process for Creating Custom LED Signage
Our illuminated signage begins with a design consultation. You’ll work with our in-house designers to create signs that suit your branding and the personality of your business. We’ll put together some mockups for you to review, and we’ll refine our design until you’re happy.
We then craft your message or logo using durable materials. Each element is enhanced with finishes such as paint, vinyl, metal and other special coatings.
Depending on your preferences, the signage can be fully illuminated from the front and sides, front-lit, side-lit with opaque faces, or mounted to create a stunning halo/backlit effect.
For lighting, we use high-quality LED modules, neon or fluorescent tubes, ensuring long-lasting brightness.
The signage can be installed flush to the building’s facade or mounted on a raceway or wireway. A raceway provides a stable mounting base and houses electrical components to create a neat, custom solution to your signage needs.

High quality lightbox signage is durable and can last for 10+ years.
The lightbox signage supplied by Signs Brisbane is well-built and highly durable. Because lightbox signage is made from hard plastics, it’s important to use quality materials that can withstand everyday use.
Exposure to Brisbane’s sun and storms can quickly damage low quality illuminated signage, which is why we take great pride in offering durable products.
Modern illuminated signage typically uses LED technology that is extremely energy efficient. The signs are also great for generating new business and building your brand recognition, so they’re very cost-effective.
Signs Brisbane encourages LED for all our illuminated signs. Although the upfront cost is slightly more, savings in power and maintenance make it worth it in the long run. If LED illuminated signs aren’t in your budget, we provide alternatives such as fluorescent lighting.
Depending on the size of the sign and how you use it, the yearly running costs could range from $100 to $1000.
Signs Brisbane always encourages clients to choose our LED signage options. While the upfront cost is slightly higher, the money you save on power and maintenance means LEDs are well worth your investment.
LED and neon signs look very similar. LED signs surpass neon in reliability, durability, and efficiency. They are long-lasting, fitting into small letters and large signs with precision.
LED strips allow for easy message changes, keeping signage dynamic and are also cost-effective; using significantly less energy than neon or fluorescent lighting. Furthermore, they offer superior brightness for excellent visibility, even in daylight.
Signs Brisbane can help source an electrician to complete the installation of your signs. We partner with qualified, licensed electricians that we know and trust.
You can also arrange an electrician on your own. We’ll share any information they need to complete the installation.
